Israel should kill ‘30-40’ Gazans every night, Ben-Gvir says

National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has called for Israel to conduct nightly precision strikes in Gaza, aiming to kill 30 to 40 individuals each night. Speaking on a podcast with former hostage Rom Braslavski, Ben-Gvir stated his disagreement with the prime minister on the approach to the conflict.

“

I think that we need to do targeted strikes in Gaza every night, take out 30, 40 - not just those who endanger us in that moment.

Ben-Gvir articulated extreme views, asserting that certain individuals in Gaza are "not worthy of life" and should not be alive. He extended this sentiment to those who might be considered uninvolved, even suggesting that a woman who provided food to Braslavski during his captivity "needs a bullet in the head." He characterized her actions not as concern, but as an attempt to preserve a hostage for future terrorist releases.

“

There are people there who aren't worthy of life; they shouldn't be alive; they aren't people at all.

The minister also expressed his ambition to see Israeli settlements established throughout Gaza, including in areas like Gush Katif. He advocated for encouraging emigration for Gazan citizens while stating that terrorists should receive no such option, only death. Ben-Gvir proudly noted that he is considered the most feared man in Gaza, a sentiment echoed by Braslavski's description of terrorists' hatred and fear towards him. He also voiced his personal dream of executing captured terrorists himself, stating, "With my own hands, I will execute every terrorist here."

“

She needs a bullet in the head. She didn't bring you food because she worried about your health - she brought you food because she wanted to preserve you so you could be a resource afterward, in that murdering terrorists would be released.
